Born into a clerical family,[1] he was educated at Charterhouse and Trinity College, Oxford,[2] before taking holy orders at Leeds Clergy School. After curacies in Eton and Chatham he embarked on a career that was to take him from pastoral (Incumbencies in Oxfordshire and Yorkshire[3]) to administrative (Diocesan Educational Inspector[4]) posts before a steady rise up the ecclesiastical ladder. He was successively Rural Dean of Silkstone, Rector of Barnsley, and Archdeacon of Halifax. In July 1902 he was appointed an honorary Canon of Wakefield Cathedral.[5] He became Dean of York in 1917,[6] serving as such until 1925 when he was appointed Dean of Westminster.[7] An exceptionally talented artist[8] he wrote widely on church treasures.[9] A much respected cleric,[10] he died on 28 September 1937 and was buried in Westminster Abbey.[11] His grandson was Air Chief Marshal Sir Christopher Foxley-Norris the Battle of Britain pilot who went on to have a distinguished air force career.
